I do take away the head and run the 1st tanks only with the burnroom at 90-100 degrees celcius. Then I mount a small head and run a few tanks and then the original head.

It does expand the sleeve at a rich setting but still keepng the operating temperature. It will give less forces on crank and rod and the piston will get a smoother surface.
